Nick Foles Fantasy

Chicago Bears wide receiver Allen Robinson II (knee) is questionable for Week 13 against the Lions after not appearing on the injury report until Friday. Quarterback Nick Foles (hip) and defensive tackle Akiem Hicks (Achilles, hamstring) are also questionable. Robinson was limited in practice on Friday, so he appears to be on the right track to play. Despite playing in a bad Bears offense, he has been a top-15 fantasy wideout in PPR leagues and has an excellent matchup against Detroit on Sunday. The Lions are thin in the secondary and might be without top cornerback Desmond Trufant. They also allow the eighth-most fantasy points per game to pass-catchers. A-Rob has 71 catches for 829 yards and five touchdowns this year and should remain a low-end WR1 in all fantasy lineups. Foles is expected to play, but he'll back up Mitchell Trubisky.

Chicago Bears quarterback Nick Foles (hip) returned to a full practice on Thursday and is expected to serve as the backup to Mitchell Trubisky in Week 13 against the Lions. Until Trubisky either plays his way out of the starting job again or gets injured, it looks like Foles will hold the clipboard on the sideline. Neither signal-caller has been the answer for Chicago's inept offense this season, but Trubisky at least gives fantasy managers in superflex leagues a little bit higher of a ceiling because of his rushing ability. The Lions Defense was just shredded on Thanksgiving by the Texans, so Trubisky does actually have some QB2 streaming appeal on Sunday. The 26-year-old turned the ball over three times in the blowout loss to Green Bay last week, but he also threw three touchdowns.

Chicago Bears quarterback Nick Foles (hip) is listed as doubtful to face the division-rival Packers in Week 12. It means that Mitchell Trubisky (shoulder), who has practiced in full this week, will return to the starting gig under center after being benched for Foles in Week 3. Neither Foles nor Trubisky have been the answer for the Bears offense in 2020, but at least Trubisky offers fantasy managers in superflex leagues a bit more upside because of his rushing ability. No. 1 receiver Allen Robinson II should also benefit, as he showed some nice chemistry with Trubisky in 2019. Trubisky's fantasy stock is back on the rise as a low-end QB2, but he'll also be facing a Packers Defense that has allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game to signal-callers this season.
